Status Quo give Beady Eye the thumbs up

Status Quo star Francis Rossi is a Beady Eye fan.

The 'Rocking All Over the World' singer admits he grudgingly likes Liam Gallagher's new band, even though he hates the "grumpy" frontman.

Francis said: "I quite like that single they did, I can't remember the name, I didn't want to. I don't want to like him, he's got that sort of face, he's a grumpy sod. But I do like them I have to admit it."

Liam's former band Oasis were compared to Status Quo ' famous for their traditional rock 'n' roll ' by their Britpop rivals Blur in the 90s.

Even though Francis enjoys Beady Eye ' whose racks include 'Bring The Light' and 'The Roller' ' he admits he isn't up to date with the current rock scene and didn't even bother checking the line-up for Glastonbury because the world famous music festival is "just a gig".

When quizzed on what he though of this year's Glastonbury line-up ' which included U2, Coldplay and Beyonce Knowles ' he said: "I don't think about. I don't think about gigs and what the bill is, it's just a gig.

"At my age, current to me is Muse, and they're about 10 years old. If they're not around for 10 years I don't even notice."
